LADY DAY (music by L. Johnson, lyric by Teri Roiger)

Twilight falls, night birds call, moonflowers fill the air 

She appears, so sublime, Gardenia in her hair 

Takes the stage in the night, to sing the blues away 

When the light of the dawn seems far away 

Each intoxicating phrase…

GHOST OF A CHANCE -- Vocalese -- lyrics to Lester Young's solo

If only you would discover, I’m your true lover 

We would be dreaming and scheming with each other 

Then you’d be mine again, and you’d never want to let me go 

Back into your arms now, learning ‘bout your many…

THEM THERE EYES -- Vocalese -- lyrics to Ella's solo with the Count Basie Band

I fell for you, the first time I looked into,  deep into those sparkling bright eyes 

My heart was poundin’, it was alarmin’, how they could tantalize 

Then came your arms and they wrapped me so tight 

I tried to…

MISTERIOSO (Listen To Your Soul) music by Thelonious Monk, lyric by Teri Roiger

Whispering your deepest darkest thoughts to me
Will set you free
And you won't have to hide behind
That lovely mask that's so refined
Tangled shadows resting in your heart
Will waken with a start
When you begin to turn…

SUNSHOWER (music by Kenny Barron, lyric by Teri Roiger)

Showers fall in silent space, They sparkle in the sunlight’s warm embrace
Rays of light so eloquent, The love you give me must be heaven sent
You came to me, a spirit bright, To satisfy, my thirst for life
The…

STILL LIFE (music & lyrics by Teri Roiger) 3rd place in Jazz category (Int'l Songwriting Competition) 

The leaves are falling down, So many leavin’ town
All the words unsaid, Unravel in our head
So many lives we lead, And stories we all weave
Creating works of art, To feed our hungry hearts

We are still here…

IN AN OPEN MIND (music & lyrics by Teri Roiger & John Menegon)

IN AN OPEN MIND 

As the deep blue sea, gently cradles me, spinning tales of fantasy 

As the ocean roars, my emotions soar, leading me to distant shores 

Then the darkness falls, dancing moonbeams call, shadows softly kiss the night

MONK'S POINT (music by John Menegon, lyrics by Teri Roiger)

What happens when you don’t even have a key to your own heart?
Misunderstanding, love never lasting, bittersweet romance
Constant craving, misbehaving . . . Looking to find love everlasting

Imagination will lead you to a new way to live…

DEWEY'S TUNE (music by Dewey Redman, lyrics by Teri Roiger)

Bright lights, dark nights
Shine in the city of the soul
Melody’s mysteries
How sweet the magic of sound
In the rhythm of the sea
Music’s all around

Moon shining lighting up the skies
Harmony’s mysteries
This life is only…

BOO DAH (music & lyrics by Teri Roiger)

You do something nice to me, Whenever I get next to you
The poetry of your embrace, Leaves me in a state of grace

If you would ever be untrue, I would be through with you
Knowing you would always…

REFLECTIONS (music by Thelonious Monk, lyrics by Teri Roiger)

If you could see what I am feeling
The mirror would be, so revealing
And then, your moves might sway me
As I see in your eyes, a million surprises

With just one glance from you I'm breathless, again
Loving…

BYE YA (music by Thelonious Monk, lyrics by Teri Roiger)

My baby he left me
He went for a long walk
He wandered off too far
Now he's gone and there's no more talk

I wondered what went wrong
He came to me so strong
And then he just vanished…
